Description
Sooner or later politicians find themselves the subject of a political cartoon. In the hands of a talented artist the editorial cartoon can be a powerful weapon because the point it is making can be quickly absorbed and transmitted. Nevertheless cartoons are frequently overlooked as a form of political communication. This article suggests that cartoons deserve to be studied and this should be done by taking into account the type of political regimes, forms of media ownership and rules that govern the production of cartoons. When this is done a conclusion emerges that political cartoons, are another means whereby powerful interests reinforce their views on society. Most people, young and old, have some familiarity with cartoons, from comics and graphic illustrations in books, to the "funnies" and editorial cartoons found in newspapers around the world. Cartoons can amuse, have messages that are pointed and provide a current social commentary on the world around them.
